He also is a netbook fan. I think that'll be his first computer. Just his size! :-)

No, he'd be a geek in the making if he did the dance when you started installing Windows 7 ;-)

My 2.5 year old helped me today with Windows 7 too! HA! So easy, a toddler can do it. :)
- Brendan Cosgrove
That's cute. I think Windows 7 has convinced me to buy a new PC for the first time in 5 years.

I wish I could install Windows 7, but the install fails. Look at me, 12 years older than your son and I can't even do it! Makes me want to rethink my priorities.

Kids pick up tech so quick don't they. My 3 1/2 year old daughter is a master off all the remotes etc already

Easy enough a caveman could do it. Been very pleased with Windows 7 so far today. Haven't had a single crash. Just had to install some 3rd party drivers over the default ones. That and Chrome didn't work well, but no big deal.

Simple enough - 25 min install + 15 more for MS Office. Faster, and smoother than Vista. Big step forward for MS.

Why are you exposing him to Windows? So many studies have shown that happy computers make happy kids and happy computers need Mac!
- Louis Gray
Do not listen to Louis. *Hissss* The Steve-Side has pulled him in. LOL Just teasing Louis. :)
- Robert Miller
What's great is that Windows 7 runs on older PCs too, and quite well. You don't need loads of disk or memory for it to run.

Louis: Milan will be brought up as an OS agnostic, just like his older brother Patrick. When he's old enough he will decide which one is better. Patrick is the world's #1 Apple fan because he was exposed to both. :-)
- Robert Scoble
My 30 month old son says "Apple" whenever he wants to play on a computer, regardless of the OS. I think the big Apple logo is something he now associates with the computer (along with Youtube 'Fire Truck House' videos. "Fire Truck-Doors Open" is his new favorite saying)
- Andrew Leyden
Robert: Ask Patrick to give us his opinion on 7 then, please?
- Roberto Bonini
Patrick is very solidly in Apple's camp. He's a little religious about his OS choice at the moment so getting him to see any value in something Microsoft does is going to be very difficult.
- Robert Scoble
Patrick should be using GNU/Linux. When you're young is when ideals like freedom should rule. Robert, you need to sit him down and have him watch 5 hours of Stallman videos until he screams "proprietary is evil".

Greggish: sorry, Patrick is one of those "Steve Jobs is king" types. Not much I can do about it. I just hope it passes soon.
